How can I find my own comments?

I'm doing fine when searching for my own threads in Answers but I have little success in finding threads on which I commented and it can get pretty frustrating ; -)

Any ideas how to search for them?

Hi ddrillic,

I usually use this in Google search to get comments:

 site:answers.splunk.com "commented by ddrillic"

and you will get your comments 😉

cheers, MuS

This is gorgeous @MuS - any luck in sorting them by date?

No Google search expert, but you can create a scripted input, index the results, and search them in Splunk 😛
Then it would be as easy as running this:

 index=answers source=ddrillic sourcetype=comments | stats values(*) AS * by _time | sort - _time

cheers, MuS
